Dosas (Indian Rice and Lentil Pancakes) image

In response to a request, I haven't tried these, but they sound intriguing. This is an Indian lentil and rice pancake. The mixture needs to soften and set for sometime, you'll need at least 1 1/2 days to complete the process.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my dosas turned out really thick and gummy. I think I might have used too much water in the batter.

The dosas were a bit bland for my taste, but they were still good. I think I would add more salt and spices next time.

I've tried making dosas before, but they always turned out too thick and doughy. This recipe was perfect! The dosas were thin and crispy, just like I like them.
